Sandra Layman's "Little Blackbird" released--Klezmer, Romanian, Greek, Turkish, and Hungarian violin music
"Little Blackbird" features traditional klezmer (Yiddish instrumental), Romanian, Greek, Turkish, and Hungarian fiddling by violinist Sandra Layman. Tracks range from Balkan dances in jagged rhythms, to poignant Jewish and Romanian doinas, to rarely-heard klezmer and Asia-Minor Greek tunes, to a Hungarian gypsy medley. The recordings were mostly made at concert and festival performances, 1982-1985.
